Reflections on #NACADAburgh

That's a wrap, folks - another fantastic NACADA Region 2 conference has come and gone. A week ago we were settling into the Omni William Penn, reuniting with colleagues, and exploring the incredible city of Pittsburgh.

As we look back to the conference, we have a few words from our fearless co-chairs, Chris and Fai:

Fai Howard:
"It was such an amazing experience to co-chair the conference. Chris and I worked so well together. We had such a fun, well-organized, and dedicated planning committee too. I can’t thank Chris and committee enough for their hard work. The success of the conference is a reflection of the entire planning committee and our NACADA family. I look forward to Dover and enjoying the conference as an attendee! My hope is that the information learned will be implemented through the Region and surrounding areas to support our students."

Chris Kirchof:
"As for last words, I agree with everything Fai said! I would add that this conference would not have been able to success if not for the volunteers, presenters, and all the attendees that came with such a positive attitude about their profession! I, too, hope the positive attitudes can carry on and help to strengthen the Region even further!"

Many, many thanks again to Chris & Fai and the entire planning committee. Bravo!!
